Breaking News ! Bob Golic Back In Football

Last weeks interview with Michael D. Dwyer,
the man trying to bring the USFL back from
it's extinction was just the first of many
pieces of news that will be coming from that
league, and now they have the first of many
to come "names" attached to their proposed
reemergence. A source close to the situation
has confirmed that Bob Golic has agreed to
head their "Competition & Rules" committee.
Golic a former NFL lineman and member of the
New England Patriots, Cleveland Browns and
LA Raiders is also the brother of Mike Golic
of ESPN's "Mike & Mike" radio morning team.

"Ranting With Rizzo" & The USFL

This week we have the opportunity to chat with
Founder and Chairman of the New USFL Michael D.
Dwyer. As always go touch on many things sports,
and The Sports Trivia Challenge Grand Prize keeps
on getting bigger, and we have now included a prize
for the runner up. So step right up and take
your shot, and enter as many times as you like !

NFL Goes to 47 Game Season to Accomadate CJ2K Quest for 2500 yards

Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans boasted that
this year he would reach 2,500 yards rushing, but
if his first two games this year are any indication,
then that is nothing more than illusion on his part.
CJ had one breakaway run vs the Raiders due to a
defensive breakdown on the Part of FS Michael Huff
(He was benched for the next defensive series).
If you subtract only that run from CJ's total so
far in 2010, then you'll see that he has a total of
100 rush yards on 42 rush attempts this season for a
grand total average of 2.38 YPA. If that is a pattern
that teams are starting to key in on CJ then it would
take Mr Johnson almost 47 games at an average of 53.25
yards per game to achieve his feat 2,500 yards rushing
in a single season. His average in the Raider game
minus his one breakaway run was was slightly higher
at 2.54 yards per carry, and vs the Steelers it was
2.125. So he better hope he has a few more of those
76 yard runs mixed in, otherwise the NFL may truly need
to go to a 47 game season to accommodate CJ2k's desire!

NY Jets Are The Devil


Poor poor Inés Sáinz was cruelly subjected to all
that boorish locker room behavior and vile male
chest thumping all with an overflow of male
testosterone, when all she was trying to do was
be a good, sound journalist. Why can't
these guys just respect that she's a professional
first and not just another piece of meat !

Stone Cold NFL Locks

Last week I won all three fo my games
by a total 13 points, and any of them
could have gone either way, but I was
confident and a win is a win. So here
I am looking to start the season 6-0 and
I'm even more confident this week.

Dallas

Green Bay

Carolina

They may not be the sexiest picks, but I
guess they'll do the job ! Feel free to
play along at home. Enjoy !

Bad Day at Blue Rock?

Showing once again that it means something
between these two schools when they meet,
North Carolina makes sure to exact a revenge
joy, no matter how little by beating vaunted
state rival Duke 1-0 in Soccer, Yes, Soccer.

Duke sure didn't do a good job of letting their
football team speak for how frustrated they were
as the next day the Blue Devils also got it handed
to them
on the Football field.

How The J-E-T-S Season May REALLY Look

They may have played the second best (According
to coach Rex Ryan)Defense in the NFL tonight, but
they didn't really give their fans any hope to be
optimistic. Yup, only one game, but a look at
their schedule may put things into a little more
perspective and make you realize that they have
farther to go than they would like you to believe.
Hopefully the Bears will make a run at a perfect
season and rest their starters (LOL), and the
Bills will lay down in hopes that they can get
Jake Locker with the number one overall pick
in the 2011 NFL Draft. That way they can sneak
in like they did last year and pump their chests
loud and proud on how they "almost" went to the
Super Bowl. Of course alomost only counts in
horseshoes and hand grenades, and fortunately
we don't have any of those to think about around
here. GO J-E-T-S !

Patriots...........L (Prediction)0-2
@Dolphins..........L (Prediction)0-3
